and all along the line of march, from the
depot to the hall of the regiments armory,
the noisy and hearty demonstration was
continuous. The route was brilliantly
Illuminated with colored fire and fireworks,
despite the inclement weather, it
having rained nearly the whole eve
Ming, and the lateness of the hour.
The streets were filled with people
who greeted the visitors in a most cordial
manner. When the visitors reached Seventh
street, on which is situated the armory, the
mass Of human beings was so great that it
was with great difficulty that way could
be made through.
THE ADDRESS OF WELCOME.
Upon reaching the Armory line was
formed in front of the building with the
visitors in the centre, and from the steps of
the main entrance, Hon. j. Taylor, in
the absence, due to illness, of the Mayor,
delivered brief address of welcome, which
was responded to in fitting terms by Com
mander David Walker, of Lauder Post. The
Lynn men were then invited into
the Armory, where refreshments
were served and courtesies in
terchanged for some time. They were
then escorted to their headquarters at Ford's

taken in vehicles to various points of inter

Senator Morgan Denies That Alabama
Needs Amy Tariff Aid.
MONTGOMERY, ALA, July 4.-The Fourth
of July was observed more generally in
Montgomery to-day than for ten years past.
At Riverside, the new manufacturing sub
urb, barbecue was given and in the af-
teInoon the cornerstone of a monu-
'ment to industry was laid with
Masonic ceremonies. 1t was all
in celebration of the founding of Montgom-
ery's first iron furnace, which is to be built
in the agricultural district An address
was made by United States Senator John r.
Morgan, who made an elaborate argument
against tariff for protection. He contended
that the iron furnaces of Alabama need no
tariff, and he would rather no brick should
ever be laid on yonder furnace than that
it should be upheld by Protectionists" He
closed by stating that arrangements were
already perfected by which the Nicaragua
canal will be built, and this he considered,
means more than protection for the iron in
terests of Alabama. His low tariff speech
on the occasion Of the founding of the fur
mace gathers interest from the fact that he
comes before the Legislature next year for
reelection, and his speech to-day was vir-
tually the opening of his campaign for re-
election in opposition TO protection, which
is gaining a strong and aggressive footing
in the mineral region. The speech was well

PHILADELPHIA, July At has been ten
years since Philadelphia has celebrated the
Fourth of July in an old fashioned way, but
at the suggestion of a prominent morning

The balloon was this evening still among

erly direction. II is called the independence
and was constructed especially for this trip.
One Of the most noteworthy features OF the
day was the boat races on the Schuylkill
river, there being six different races. The
entries were SO numerous that trial and final
heats were necessary, and these practically
lasted all day. Altogether the day was an
enjoyable one and proved TO be just what it
